My body is ready - Nintendo E3 Conference (posted on Jun 8, 2011)
Started a few minutes late, but to kick things off, they go straight for their green boy, Link, as Nintendo Celebrates 25 years of The Legend of Zelda. Fully orchestrated music at the front to add to the effect. At the same time, they cleverly throw in gameplay from the upcoming Ocarina of Time... [Read more]
Ubisoft E3 press Conference (posted on Jun 7, 2011)
This conference starts off with the main director thanking everyone for 25 years of Ubisoft. We start off officially....with fail acting of shakespeare. And with Rayman Origins. Gameplay looks to be in 2.5D and chasing after chests, at least for the first part. Now onto some platforming with... [Read more]
Quick update (posted on Apr 8, 2011)
I'm gonna make this one short, primarily because i'm going to make a fairly lengthy post on both The 3rd Birthday from Square-Enix, and Dynasty Warriors 7 of TecmoKoei(which i won \o/, still wondering how). So without further ado, here is a collection of just some of the news this past week.... [Read more]
Here's to new beginnings! - Blog restart (posted on Mar 24, 2011)
So here i am, wiping the slate clean(literally) of my old attempts at blogging and starting anew. Why the sudden restart/interest in blogging? Well, my time is still rather...limited, so my original plan to create an all news, opinions and attempt at review podcast is on an indefinite halt...at... [Read more]
Random Animé post #1 (posted on Mar 3, 2009)
As you can quite easily tell, despite me making this blog for the great medium that is Animé, i've lacked a lot of articles. Thats not to say i've not got anything to talk about, far from it, its that i lack any general ability to write anything and get my thoughts over thoroughly. Mind you that... [Read more]

How did you discover anime?
I could go and say Dragonball Z, but at the time i had no idea that it was actually anime, so i would say it has to have been Cowboy Bebop, one of the best series i've seen with a stunning soundtrack too boot.
How much anime do you actually watch? Ever made the time to read manga too?
i watch quite a lot of anime i must admit, but i like my manga too. Currently i'm watching through about 4 series which are currently airing at the moment, along with collecting a couple of series as well, but i'm busy working my way through the likes of the Berserk manga and keeping up-to-date with Bleach, so i read a fair bit of manga too, and light novels in fact.
Other than the obvious anime addiction, what else do you enjoy?
Next to anime and manga, i'm really into learning japanese, admittedly i'm not that good yet but i'm getting there. I enjoy my films too, from cheesey old fashioned horrors(zombie films yay!), to Asian Cinema, i'll sit through anything really, even if its just for a laugh. I've been a gamer for the majority of my life too, as well as play golf for most of my life too, though i haven't had much chance now i am in university.
Tell us all about yourself?
About me, well there isn't much to know really. I'm currently in University Studying Maths with Physics(i know i know, why maths of all things, i don't know either by the way), and enjoying life as a student as much as i can. Other than that, i'm a little sarcastic on occasion and not very funny...oh and more or less boring(well that was obvious with the maths bit and all), and that about sums me up, oh yeah i'm trying to teach myself japanese too, which is going slowly.
What is it that you love about anime?
To be honest, i'm not entirely sure. I think in a sense its the imagination they put into it. Anime is not limited to anything so artists/authors can let their imaginations run wild and what they come up with can be truly amazing. The varied art styles as well, i've always been a fan of art and animation, so i think the varying styles really attract me too anime more as well.
